Our kitchens continue to get more colorful in 2025!
With more than half of the year gone by, we’ve seen some subtle changes to kitchen cabinet color schemes. While white cabinets remain a prominent option for kitchens of all sizes, using an accent color on an island, or two separate colors on upper and lower cabinets for a two-toned look continues to be popular. We’ve also seen that deep, bold cabinet colors are increasingly gaining in popularity, especially for mid- to large-sized kitchens.
Going into the latter part of 2025 and continuing through 2026, we expect to see even more– not so subtle–changes. More creamy, warm and neutral tones are making a comeback! However, bold colors aren’t going away; they’re being paired with the new warm shades. For example, creamy off-whites and earth tones are now being shown with complementary shades of deep green, dark blue or warm wood tones. In fact, warm wood tones remain prevalent in kitchen designs and will continue to be in high demand. Picture a creamy neutral shade on upper cabinets and a complimentary woodsy earth-tone on lower cabinets, or simply a wood-toned accent color on an island, a floating shelf or separate pantry.
This shifting trend toward deeper shades and warm wood tones can add dimension and character to kitchens of any size. In many mid- to larger-size kitchens, bold colors have already begun to be the featured color versus just an accent color and the new warm wood tones are versatile enough to use as either. Some industry experts are even talking about shades of sage, olive and terracotta for 2026! Whatever your dream kitchen looks like, there are many great options to choose from at Pacific Kitchens.
